After recently obtaining a very nice looking Boba Fett helmet, I've grown an interest in making a complete costume. I was researching parts and prices, but I'm having trouble finding a good jetpack. Are there any places I can buy one from? I'm not looking for 100% accuracy, just the least expensive one I can get. I've also seen a few people build them themselves; Is it less expensive to just build one from scratch? If so, what are the materials/steps required to make one? Thank you so much for any help!

Are you based in the US or the UK? I have a spare Don Post one that needs a little work on the rocket and one of the thrusters but it is painted up nicely. I'm based in the UK and shipping overseas might be hefty due to weight.

I ordered one from Fett Seven and NME Props. It should be arriving soon, so I can't really say how it looks at this time. But it may be an option. Just search 'Birth of a Jetpack' to see their first molds.
